Best on the Market
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best on the market. Noise cancelling is excellent. Switches modes when you walk or go into other noisy environments. Pauses when you take off, resumes when you put back on. And pauses when you start talking...yep you need these. I have all 3 colors.

Better than Bose
||Posted . Owned for 4 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent wireless noise-cancelling headphones. I was skeptical about these versus the industry leading Bose, however these are working so well that I don't know how Bose will maintain their marketshare unless they make some innovative changes.

But sometimes when multiple devices are connected it has a tough time to recognize from where the music is being queued. Noise cancelling is amazing.
